Pets of the Week

Blaster is 1-1½ years old and weighs 55 pounds. He came in as a stray to Washoe County (Reno), Nev. He is very sweet and intelligent and does well around other dogs his size. However, he will grab any small animal, so he cannot go to a home with cats, small dogs or any other small animal. He needs lots of exercise to keep him happy and out of mischief. Blaster seems to enjoy being groomed, sitting for an hour before becoming restless. Email rescue@norsled.org or call 800-471-5822.
